Ugh, Ben's. Though I will admit to a fondness for Schwartz's.
I was just thinking about Santropol the other day. I used to live about across the street.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, cool and tempting. Even though I go back to the city every year, it's been at least ten since I ate at Santropol. Must make a note to do that this year. I think I didn't mind eating at Reuben's -- certainly not their smoked meat, though. Must have been a cheesecake thing.

I don't think I've had breakfast out in a very very very long time. Probably not since childhood. Brunch-defined-by-food was probably a couple years ago?

The last time I went to Kindergarten Tea party was September 11, 2001.

I'm so sad! Lulu's Blue Plate has disappeared! I need to find a new brunchy/fancy breakfast place.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
When I lived in Carrboro I was within walking distance of sort of a post-hippie diner named Elmos. (Post-hippie=served granola and hummus and bacon, all on the same plate if you asked.) They had the best coffee ever, as well as damned fine huervos rancheros. I remember going there one Saturday for brunch, drinking about 7 cups of coffee, and then burbling to my roommate about how beautiful everyone in the room was.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Best breakfast we ever had was at El Sol Y La Luna in Austin, TX. I love freshly made tortillas served up with migas with chorizo and refried beans on the side.

You know there's a really good tortillaria in Fells Point now? At least one.
Best breakfast burritos I ever had were at the Dairy Queen in the little town it TX my grandparents lived in. Freshly made tortillas and everything. So yum.
